 | Conakry Flights and Airline Tips | 1 - 8 of 8 |  |
Inspired by someone who emailed me, let me spell out for you the HOW to get here options...
1. Air France-- Most Expensive, but good movies, nice looking flight attendents and comfy seats.
2. SN Brussels-- usually about 300-500 less than AF, but more cramped, food is not that great and to get to the states you MUST pass through NEWARK!
3. Air Moroc-- never taken it but some say it is ok for the cheapest way to get out of here. After that... you're on your own!
Hope this helps any who have quesitons! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Hold On!!! by africateach
I personally have never taken one, but then of course when you see arms, legs, people hanging from the back and heads out... you kind of loose interest and find a smaller taxi! Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

I love bikes, but not here! Not only are the bikes themselves not the best, but the traffic and people behind the wheels are NUTZ!!! So, if you get one... please be careful and watch out for all the TAXI!!! Leave a Comment Theme: Motorcycle

 Taxis by africateach
Actually the Taxi situation here is pretty good. It does not take long to flag down a driver and they actually love haggling with you... it is kind of fun! You will meet some really interesting people and if you rent the taxi (deplacement) yourself, it is cool because you can stretch out and talk to the driver about ANYTHING!!!
Tried to ride with others once, but I need my elbow room!!! Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

We went out to some bars in Conakry. The first one I remember was the titanic....!!! :-) It had blue neon lights outside and a sign that said Titanic...it seemed like a shaq. Inside there were some people realy nice. They would not sell us singel drinks only a whole bottle of vodka.....not very nice but we were many together so we bought the bottle. After that we went to a disco but in the end the miletary was worried about us and asked us to go home. We were beeing mobbed by prostitudes....realy annoying! We couldn´t dance together with out some ho´s coming and offering services. I guess we might have been rude but when your not used to this sort of thing you may not react right....and by the way what is the right way to react to crazy ho´s??? One might wonder. All in all it was a good night and I was so happy to make it home alive!!! Leave a Comment Address: No idea ask the pool guyDirections: Ask the reception they know

As an American, you are invited to the 230th anniversary of the Marie Corp. The Marines hold this every year and there is a small fee, but party till the cows come home! Great set up. The marines have their ceremony and then the drinking and dancing begins. They have this buffet that is spread out consisting of everything one could hope for!
Anyone who ponies up the dough can go, but mostly Americans attend. After feasting, cigars come out in droves! All the guys delve into their pouches and pull out the big stogies! I had some fine Cohiba ciagrs that made a huge splash with the Marines cause they cant get them!
You can meet a lot of people there and hang out with friends (like in the photo) to talk about leaving!!! Even the ambassador to the US shows up for a couple of minutes and then lets us alone to get nutty!
At the end of the night (if you can make it) just hop into a taxi and go home, or stay at the hotel for some nigttime reconnoissance HE HE! Leave a Comment Address: Different location every year!Other Contact: Marine House/ Touyah
